FIRE
ENGINEERS — DISCUSSION PAPER
517. Hon KATE DOUST to the
Minister for Commerce:
I refer to the Legislative Assembly estimates committee
hearings of 22 August 2013, division 54, ''Commerce'', and the
issue of the registration of fire engineers and the statement —
� we are finalising a discussion
paper at the moment and expect to release that in the next few months, �
When will the discussion paper be finalised and made public?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the
question.
I am advised by the Department of Commerce that consultation
with stakeholders on this matter is ongoing, due to such emerging issues as
those outlined in the recently released ''Concept Paper: Review of the
Emergency Services Acts''. A discussion paper on fire engineers that
will take into consideration the issues raised during this extensive
consultation process is now planned for release later this year.
